 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Looks pukka to me - comes with plastic stabilising brackets (useless quite frankly) plus the internal brackets which hide behind the bumper cover Thumbs Up

Definitely the Pukka item. The fitting kit with the steel brackets is sixty-five pounds from Concept mouldings and those steel brackets are as rare as rocking horse excrement!

Pukka is Indian slang for good, correct, genuine.

BY DW no less!

DW, there'sa good thread on here somewhere on an easy fitting method (with pictures to assist) that does not involve removing the wheel arches completely. I've just fitted one and those extra tips were invaluable. The whole job took me three hours.

It wasn't my A-Bar, just spotted it on e-Bay last night with a suprisingly sensible BIN price so posted it on here.

Good to meet you last night and glad you enjoyed the little diversion through the ford. This is what it looked like in January



Check your intercooler/radiator for fish!!!



Look forward to seeing you at the Fairmile on Tuesday Thumbs Up
